Bear-case history
Risks carried through the record.
medium
Rising Minority Interest Denting EPS
Minority interest ranged from 14-24% of PBT in FY26 vs 15-16% guidance. Excluding one-time DTL reversal, minority was 16%. This dilutes consolidated earnings accretion from subsidiaries.
Customer Concentration in Standalone Business
Standalone entity restructuring with external consultant indicates margin pressure. Excluding one-time costs, standalone profitability ~11% vs 15% consolidated, reflecting higher dependence on limited OEM programs.
Deferred Tax Reversal Skewed Q3 PAT
One-time reversal of DTL on green fuel merger created favorable tax impact. Excluding this, ETR is 26% going forward, but Q3 PAT growth of 90% is partially inflated by this non-recurring item.
